Leaving my OP in place, but I have rewritten the description with much more detail and pics here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25401417#post25401417
I suggest skipping to there.
I am looking for general tips here. E.g., not asking you to diagnose my specific problem so much as give me ideas of what else to check or try.
Lately I have had unexplained (to me) battery drain. Yesterday I lost about 25 percent in an hour while the phone idled. It is not a constant thing, though. I can go an hour and loose 1 percent then loose massive amounts in the next hour.
Now, i have searched, but I have not found anything that applies to me.
I have:
Tried a different radio
Tried a different kernel
Reflashed my rom
Phone is entering deep sleep according to cpu spy
There are no unusual or excessive wake locks according to better battery stats
No apps are using a lot of battery.
I am in a low signal area at work, but putting the phone in airplane mode and dissabling background syn does not stop the drain.
Ideas?
might be your phone is loosing signal? i would check the battery stats in the settings menu to see if you have a poor mobile signal.

So I don't think I can blame it on that.
Do you have any exchange sync on your phone?

I do, and on reflection it is a possible culprit since I added it recently.
Didn't occur to me since it was producing no wakelocks and the battery stats did not showing as using much battery.
I shall turn it off for a bit and see if that helps. (unless there is some other way to test if it is the problem first.) I am off to the search button!

This is from yesterday when i set it down unused for about 90 minutes. The amount of wakes seems liek a lot, but it is similar to what i see when i have far far less drain, so I don't think that is the problem. I didn't get the app list screen, but out should screen as the only major drain with about 2 minutes.
I know it is shows poor signal strength, so immediately after that shot I put it in airplane mode, turned of sync, and rebooted. The battery continued to drain and graph had the exact same slope under those conditions. (Forget to get a pic though.)

System panel paid version with monitoring enabled is the best for tracking apps using CPU.
OK, still working on this.
To recap:
When the screen is off, and no apps are running I sometimes get inexplicable battery drain. This is occurring under conditions when I should be experiencing little or no drain at all. I say this becuase:
The screen is of and no bakground apps are running
the phone is NOT awake and IS entering deep sleep (as confirmed by cpuspy)
there are no unusual kernel or partial wake locks
there are no apps listed as using unexpected ammounts of battery
This is not a universal problem. The phone *often* behaves as expected. I can leave the phone off for an hour and see a 1% or 2% drain, and I am happy with that. However, sometimes, randomly, it goes nuts on my.
This graph from a few weeks ago shows what I mean. Look in the green box. The phone is sleeping, and the screen is off. The graph starts as a flatline, then, all of a sudden, it begins to drop precipitously.
Here is a graph that shows the battery dropping at the same rate whether the phone is awake or sleeping:
I have gone the following to try and narrow the problem down:
Done a completely fresh install of my Rom including a system wipe.
Tried two kernels (the aokp default and several relases of Franco's
Tried a different radio
Activated and installed a new sim card
I have come to suspect that the problem is network related. When the problem starts, sometimes going into airplane mode and back and/or toggling 2g only temporarily fixes the problem.
I suspect that something is happening with my connection to T-Mobile that keeps the network running and draining power. This is pure speculation, but it is all I can think of.
I installed juice defender (which I had not been previously running) and noticed the that, sometimes, it didn't turn of data when it should have. I also noticed the following two things happen:
I do not believe it is a rom problem, since if so, someone else would be reporting this. It might be an app problem, but if so the app is draining battery without a wake lock and while the phone is in deep sleep.
It is not exchange (as was suggested in this thread) since it continues when I ev my exchange account.
I have no idea what else to do or try.
Since it happens at random and takes a while to identify, uninstalling one app at a time to test for that could easily take months to narrow down a misbehaving app.
I know it is not a hardware issue since last month I got this:
That was with AOKP and Franco (earlier versions obviously)
I have google searched till my fingers bleed.
I am a long way form being an expert, and I suspect I may have overlooked something obvious.
Please, any thoughts??
Damn you definitely have a major issue and I don't know what it could be. But when my phone sleeps itstays dead flat with no awake bars, and drops 1% every 3 hours.
1. Calibrate battery
2. If you really wanna find the problem, install the rom with no mods or apps and run it and see if it still happens. Then add back each mod/app one at a time

While I appreciate your effort, this is remarkable unhelpful for the following reasons:
1. "calibrating" the battery is a myth and doesn't actually do something. Even if it did, it would not explain the symptoms I have described. I have been around xda long enough to know it is the knee-jerk reaction to any battery question, but it is not relevant here.
2. Since the problem occurs at random, and sometimes takes hours to show up, (For instance, last night I charged to full and tried to catch it happening. For 4 hours nothing happened, it behaved perfectly. Then I went to bed and it immediately started to fall and was dead by morning) and since I have over 100 apps, your suggestion could easily take *over a year* to follow. Believe me, I have thought about it, but I started this thread hoping for ideas that would allow me to avoid it.
Here is that chart for last night.
I had about 1 hour and 30 minutes screen on time with 65% left when I went to bed. When I woke up, phone was dead.

Mine often does that. But sometimes it doesn't. It is the fact that it happens seemingly at random that makes it so annoying and hard to track down.
I would replace the battery
One thing you haven't rulled out is that the battery itself is bad.
Have a friend you could swap with for a day, or at least long enough to see if the problem follows? If your battery drops on their phone that is also a good indication.

The thought has occurred to me, but unfortunately, no, I don't have a friend I can swap with. And really, since I have had the phone less than 3 months, the battery *shouldn't* be bad, but yeah, defective products happen.
If I cannot find any other cause I will likely order a new battery and see if that fixes it.

1. yes battery calibration does make a difference.
2. ok, so an app can't run a process at random? especially when you have "over 100 apps"? Run the rom stock and see if it still happens, or even run the stock rom/kernel. if you don't want to try this then why are you asking for suggestions? christ

We'll of course it can. That is kinda my point. If I go one app at a time waiting for it to "run a process at random" I am talking literally MONTHS of testing. I would have to wait many hours, if not days after installing or uninstalling an app to be sure whether or not it made a difference, then move on the the next. This is simply not an option. I started this thread in hopes that a realistic and doable solution might exist that I was unaware of.

Sorry to have put you out so much.
You mentioned you recently installed exchange sync. Did turning off sync remedy this or have you not tried disabling all sync features?
One other thing to check is the background data usage of your apps. You'd find this under 'data usage' and make sure you enable the wifi tab so you can see data usage on wifi.

My battery also drains at a rate similar to yours however I'm on the CDMA version. Hopefully you can figure out what's going on with yours.
Before I begin, let me state that I have already factory reset countless times and reflashed my firmware at least 3 times in the past week. Neither of these have helped me at all, so PLEASE do not suggest this. I've been trying to solve this problem for a week or two and everyone has suggested this to me and of course I've already done it, so it hasn't helped me at all.
PHONE: E980
FIRMWARE: Stock 4.4.2 E98020g
BASEBAND: APQ8064/MDM9x15M
SYMPTOMS:
-Battery draining ridiculously fast (appx 10%/hr, but before my last reflash, it was draining 50%/2hrs!)
-Phone only lasts about 5hours.
-Android OS is consuming about 80-90% of battery, followed by Screen at around 10%
-Phone is constantly warm
-Phone rarely enters Deep Sleep (it stays awake 95% of the time).
TESTS DONE:
-As I said, I factory reset numerous times with the same exact problem
-I reflashed my firmware 3x, with same problems
-I usually keep auto-sync on, but the issue occurs whether it is on or not.
-There is supposably a Kitkat 4.4.2 (in general) issue where the camera will consume a ton of CPU resources and get stuck that way. I haven't used my camera much, but do use Smart Stay, so I disabled this. No positive result.
-Disabled the Google Now "OK Google" hotword detection. This helped reduce the drain, but didn't solve it. Drain went from like 15%/hr to 10%/hr.
-Took battery out of phone for 10 minutes and placed back in. Seemed to help at first, but after about an hour or so, it returned.
-"Recalibrated" the battery numerous times. This was done by draining the battery until the phone shut itself off. Then I charged the phone to 100% while the phone was still off. Once the phone read as having 100% charge, I let it charge for another 1 hour. Then I unplugged the phone and booted it up. Again, this appeared to help at first, but after a while, the phone began to drain rapidly again.
NARROWING THE ROOT PROBLEM:
-Both WakeLock Detector and BetterBatteryStats show "wlan_wake" and "wlan_wd_wake" as being the largest wakelocks.
-As previously mentioned, "Android OS" is consuming a huge amount of battery
-Problem only seems to happen when wifi is on, whether it is connected to an SSID or not.
OTHER:
I have narrowed the issue down to wifi but I can't seem to figure it out any more than this.
Both of the "wlan_" wakelocks are caused by wifi being on and I need wifi on whenever possible because I can't afford a huge data plan. My current one is 2GB/mo and it is shared between 3 people.
I noticed today that my phone drained 10% within 1 hour after taking the phone off the charger, and I was connected to my home wifi. I then went to work, but still had wifi turned on on my phone. At work, I was only connected to mobile data (but the phone was just sitting in my pocket). The battery drained another 15% within an 1hr 30min, and the phone was warm in my pocket (very uncomfortable!). I then turned wifi off completely, and the battery drain completely disappeared!!! The battery life was amazing in fact!
PICTURES:
I've provided some screenshots with notes. Please take a look at them.
I'm going to manually make the problem happen again and will upload new pictures afterwards. They will be of WLD and BBS. Any current info I have is tainted since I turned wifi off and the problem temporarily turned off too. I want to get only screenshots of what is going on when the problem is happening.
EDIT: BTW, the problem occurs whether my mods are installed or not (the mods used to remove the icons in statusbar, AdAway, etc)..
The issue seems to be pureply related to wifi and nothing else.
IDEAS:
Could adding a wifi supplement scan interval to the build.prop solve this problem?
Is Wifi bugged in this firmware? (This never happened on Jelly Bean!!!!)
Is maybe the "Battery Saving for Wifi" feature bugged?
Would maybe flashing the Jelly bean modem (e98010p) solve this issue (since it didn't happen on Jelly Bean)? If so, does anyone have a flashable version of this? <- I just did some research and it seems that the baseband (AKA modem) is the same in Kitkat as it was in Jelly Bean. Weird....
These pictures were taken shortly after making my first post. I already had wifi turned off, so I turned it back on and after a few minutes, the battery began to plummet. I went from roughly 77% to 66% in just an hour!!!!
Just to make sure that it is clear, I have both BBS and WLD set to start recording data after the phone has been unplugged from the charger. So to restart the data collection, I simply plugged the phone into my charger for a few seconds and then removed it. THEN I turned wifi on. The data seen in the pictures should only have occurred between the time when I unplugged the phone and the time I took the pictures.
EDIT: Also just to make sure it's clear: All the data shown in the System picture is actually since I unplugged the phone this morning. I only posted these pictures to show any changes from the similar ones posted earlier.
PLEASE! Can anyone help me solve this!?
Or is this a major Kitkat bug!? (or ATT bug, or modem bug, etc etc).
After a full week of this problem, I think I just made another breakthrough. Unfortunately, I think it IS one of my Xposed modules, which is weird because I didn't think any of them would have a need to constantly connect to the internet.
All I know is that I just completely uninstalled the Xposed Framework and the phone started to sleep like a baby... with wifi on!
Now I just need to pinpoint the module, which I can do myself.
MODS CAN CLOSE THIS THREAD.
Sorry I created it and (mostly) solved my own problem. This happens to me a lot. I have a problem, can't figure it out, ask for help, then solve it myself. :/

In this case, I need to be more specific about my solution then.
The problem seems to be caused by the module, Xposed Torch. It's still usable, but you need to tap the overflow (3-dot) icon and disable ads (it's free to do this). The module requires internet access permissions, which I was not aware of, and it constantly connects to the internet to stream the ads. This in turn causes the wifi to constantly receive data (thus the wlan_wd_wake and wlan_wake). When wifi is on, but not connected to a network, I think it forces wifi to constantly scan in order to find a connection so that it can get that ad data. I'm not sure why it doesn't just use mobile data though... unless it does and it's just more power efficient.
So far, I have disabled the ads via module settings and the phone is now sleeping like it should.
So if anyone else is having wlan_wake wakelocks of any kind, especially followed by wlan_wd_wake or wlan_rx_wake, then this means that something on your phone is constantly accessing the internet via wifi. FIrst turn off auto-sync, and if this doesn't help, then you need to uninstall apps until the problem ceases.
My phone is currently icy cold in my hand and I've never been so happy to feel it like this!
Problem came back today. I've basically uninstalled every app now and the battery is still draining whenever wifi is turned on.
Under Better Battery Stats, there is a process (?) called dhc_dpc that's been running the entire time my phone has had wifi on. There are also the wlan_wakes too. (NOTE: IIm backing up my phone right now, so these names are coming from memory).
According to this thread (different phone and unknown Android version, but similar problem), the wifi driver may be bugged. They recommend doing a reinstall, but I've done this many times now and it doesn't seem to help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/dhddpc-t1246190
EDIT: I think I've found the culprit and while it is definitely wifi-related, it's NOT an app. It's the actual Android system constantly pinging the internet. According to my research, it's constantly collecting location data by using either mobile data or wifi and will do this whether you have location services (gps) or Location Reporting enabled. This has been described as a "bug." It was introduced by Google as a cool new feature, but it's implementation was buggy.
I am currently testing a fix to resolve this issue, but want to be certain that it's fully working first.
Just an an FYI, this fix SHOULD help anyone running Android 4.4.2 and experiencing high battery drain caused by Android OS. Even better, the fix does not require root, so anyone can do it!
have you try a full factory reset using lg driver to bring full stock rom back and not just a factory wipe from the phone

Not to be rude, but the first sentence of my first post says I did this several times.
I had those ridiculous battery drains on both stock ROMs with xposed, but never found a direct connection with it.. So first, (if you already haven't), try to disable xposed completely and try again. LG's stock ROM doesn't like that kind of modifications. Also, one of the biggest problems I had with Kit Kat was Location services, so you should check them too.
If that doesn't help, check your apps and download stats, maybe there is something downloading or trying to download stuff.

It's definitely Xposed related I think.
I've disabled Xposed during some testing a day or two ago and yeah, battery definitely improved.
The only modules I have installed are:
App Settings
Enable BatteryStats Permission (just to allow me to track this issue. I installed this after problems had already begun)
Greenify (all Xposed settings checked)
YouTube AdAway
I have also been using G2 TweaksBox up until last night. I only used it to declutter my status bar and to enable the advanced reboot menu. (I hate all the icons in the status bar!!!). Last night I disabled G2 TB and battery life improved dramatically!
I can't explain why G2 TB would cause battery drain, but I did notice it doing something odd yesterday. I have the lockscreen off sound enabled in the system settings, so I hear the sound whenever I lock the screen. Well, I turned my phone on yesterday for some reason when in my car. I then turned the screen off, heard the lock sound, and started driving. 15 minutes (NOT seconds!) into my drive, I randomly heard my phone make the locking sound, but the screen was not turned on!! I wonder if G2 TB delays my lock somehow.
I switched to GravityBox[KK] today since so many people claim that it works perfectly on their OGP, and so far, battery drain is MUUUUUCH better than with G2 TB activated, but it still may not be as good as pure stock. I need more time to figure it out though. This morning, my battery dropped 5% in 40 minutes while connected to my home wifi. I then left my house for a few hours, but left wifi turned on on my phone (it's hard for me to remember to switch it off and on all the time!). The battery seemed to be pretty stable after that, but I can't explain the weird 5% drop, but I did receive 2 missed calls and a text during that time too. Should I lose 5% just from getting a text and having my phone ring?
It's now night time and I'm at 75% battery. This past week, I would be at about 10% by now or even DEAD, so I'm happy as heck right now.
I would LOVE to be able to keep using GB, but I now just need to figure out if it too is draining battery, or if everything is stable. I'm going to continue comparing stock VS GB tonight and tomorrow. I'll live with stock if needed, but I'm just very OCD about the statusbar clutter.
In GB, I only disabled some icons, centered the clock, enabled advanced reboot menu, and enabled the lockscreen torch.
Try with GB and post results, it looks like it doesn't drain that much... Unfortunately for me, I had problems with every xposed module ever tried, so I simply gave up and now I'm using another rom. I think that LG's ROM is problematic, especially if you use a lot of SystemUI customisations, like GravityBox does.
Are wakelocks from orginal post still active?
G2 Tweaks aren't even compatible with our phone (as much I understood), never managed to do anything with them. I assume that G2's SystemUI is too different from OGP's, so that may be one of the problem sources.
With my normal usage (1-2 hours of music, 2-3 hours of internet - wifi or mobile, K9 sync, viber, sometimes games, ~60 SMS and few longer calls per day), battery was holding up to 35, sometimes 45 hours. With xposed, barely a day, if I turn mobile data and sync off. I usually have a dilemma about putting it to a charger before sleep, there is alway around 60-50% of battery at the end of the day.

OK, so I just got home from work and today I not only had GravityBox disabled, but I also had the ENTIRE Xposed Framework uninstalled.
My battery is now at 30% and I was only gone for 7 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is ridiculous!!!!!!!!!
*sigh* <- frustrated with this whole situation
Yes, the wakelocks are still active.
The top two Kernel Wakelocks are "wlan_wd_wake" (46.3%) and "wlan_wake" (46.2%) in that order. The next in line is "PowerManagerService.Wakelocks" (8.0%) and then "msm_hsic_host" (6.1%). This was since my last reboot, which was about 2 hours ago (I had to rebooted after removing an app that I thought was the culprit... apparently it wasn't).
Again, I keep Auto Sync on, but disablign it seems to not help in this matter at all.
I also keep wifi on. When at work, it isn't connected to a network, but I often forget to disable wifi when I leave the house, or I come home and forget to enable it and end up sucking my data plan dry. Nonetheless, I also did this while on Jelly Bean and had no issues whatsoever.
My phone is only staying in deep sleep less than 10% of the time and the time when it is awake, the CPU is running at full 1.7GHz! This is causing the phone to get warm in my pocket. It doesn't hurt, but it's enough to make things uncomfortable.
According to the battery stats (in system settings), Android OS is consuming 83% of the battery.
The biggest network drainers are "Google Play Services" (33.3%), something simply called "0" (14.8%), and a weather app. I had the weather app open manually not too long ago though, so that explains that one, but the other two I can't. I have no clue what "0" is and I have not opened Play at all today.
It's something to do with wifi itself I think, and maybe not a specific app accessing wifi. (?)
I turned wifi completely off about an hour ago and the battery drain has been stable. It's been like this for days too. If I turn off wifi, the drain is "normal." If wifi is on and connected, drain is higher than with wifi off, but barely. If wifi is on and not connected, the battery level plummets like a rock in a pond.
OH! One thing I just thought about and should mention:
Before I discovered that G2 TweaksBox was causing serious drain, I was on another battery-related thread in the OGP forum. Someone told me to delete the "libiq_client.so" file from System/lib. He assured me this would give me excellent battery life (which apparently it did not). So I did. Normally, I just rename system files so I can restore them if needed, but I guess I accidentally deleted this one.
Could this be causing the drain, and if so, can someone upload a copy of libiq_client.so so I can try it on my phone (after setting it's permissions correctly)?
Um, that's not good.
Check wireless settings, and disable "Scanning always available" if enabled.
You don't have a nand backup, do you? I have E988 variant so maybe my file isn't good, I don't know if there are big differences between them. I can upload it if you want.
It is possible that Google Services are messing things up since they are between top processes... have you tried clearing their cache/data? Also, if you have a custom recovery, clear cache/dalvik cache, maybe it helps. Also, if High precision location is enabled, try disabling it if you don't need that service, I had some problems with that in combination with weather widgets.
What partial wakelocks are active?

"Scanning always available" has been disabled since day 1
The only nand backup I have is after I already deleted the file :/
I did try clearing Google Service's cahce/data at one point and I think it helped for a few hours. It may have been a placebo effect though. I also di the recovery cache wipe and dalvik wipe with same results.
I don't keep location on at all since I don't use it. It's always off, but at one point, I did enable it to select the battery mode and then turned it off again. I did this mainly so that if and when I do use location, it would always use Battery and not High Precision.
I'm currently backing up my rom, so all partial wakelocks were cleared for now. Sorry.
I'm trying to reflash the stock rom real quick and grab the libiq_client.so file, then restore the backup and insert the file back into system. Unfortunately, I may not be able to tell if it solves the problem until sometime tomorrow.
EDIT: BTW, the only reason why I won't just start all over again on the reflash is because 1) I want to figure out what's causing this problem so it won't happen again, and 2) I don't have the time to spend hours setting my phone up again
EDIT2: Oh and every time I reflashed my ROM, the first things I did was rename/delete that library file and installed G2 Tweaksbox. And every time I had horible battery drain, so i'm really hoping it's due to the lack of this library file.

Try it. I can upload file from my backup if you're willing to experiment with that, to save you from all that flashing.
Also, if you edited your build.prop and changed pm.sleep_mode and ro.ril.disable.power.collapse, undo that. It only disabled deep sleep state for me (had similar problems few days ago when flashed a new rom, mmc1_detect, suspend_backoff and some other weird things, so I even tried that)
Have you tried using another roms?

It's OK, I'll get the file from the flashing. I know it'll be a pain, but this may be safer just in case there is some sort of difference between the E988 and E980 versions. I doubt there would be, but better safe than sorry I guess.
I did add those settings to my build.prop as a test, but I was smart there and backed up my stock build.prop first and ended up restoring it a few hours later. It was causing my screen to not always turn on when I pressed the power button.
I have not tried any other ROMs. I prefer to stick to stock ROMs (or modified versions of stock... basically anything stock-based and not CyanogenMod or AOSP). I had bad experiences with AOSP-based ROMs on my old phone.
If I tried a stock-based ROM though, it must have everything working though. I mean everything: calls, texts, LTE, bluetooth, speaker phone, etc etc.
EDIT: OH MY GOSH!!!!!!
I just found where the libiq_client file went. I moved it to my internal storage.
Well, good to know I wasn't totally stupid and knew not to completely delete the file! Unfortunately I was still dumb enough to misplace it....

Libiq.so enables carrier IQ, its removal should only help battery drain, not cause it.
Just to ask, have you tried adjuating wifi scan interval? You can try as well the xposed module, "wifi deep sleep". Helped minimize my wifi related drain
Me and my partner both have HTC ONE x's, Endeavouru, round a similar age, but her phone recently started draining battery.
Both running ARHD, with the same kernels. First I checked if apps were responsible, wiped and reflashed the ROM and kernel both.
This did not work, so then checked battery health with *#*#4636#*#* - showing the battery was in good health, but then replaced the battery anyway to eliminate any possibility of this being the culprit.
Now it's still giving massive drain - a charge up to 100% will last up to 5 hours of standby, with only mobile network activity turned on, all other radios off.
Been throughout the forums and other websites looking for any solutions to this problem but not striking any luck. Tried resetting the radio, changing it to LTE (Not even available where we are), and back etc, as one thread suggested, turned radio completely off and back on. Tried super cleaning the system before reflashing the ROM, tried a different kernel, an AOSP ROM, and still no luck.
It just all of a sudden started to do it, similar conditions to my phone, which makes it harder to pinpoint.
Any new idea's to bring to the table, open to any.

try downloading wakelock detector and seeing what keeps the phone awake and then uninstalling/reducing its privileges
the privileges part can be done with xposed and a module called appops

Well an update to this thread...
Went to install wakelock on the phone after having it turned off for a few days, the battery was drained and now every time I try charging, regardless of what I use re ac/computer/original/aftermarket charging equipment, all it does is heat up to about 58 degrees C and stop charging - with phone off or on.
Sucks as it seems to be a manufacturing fault, but since I've rooted it, and purchased 2nd hand, looks like one for the rubbish bin

check if your cpu is stuck at 100% or 1.5 ghz in trickstermod and could you post a screenshot of wakelock detector?

Surely if it's the light sensor it would be irrelevant if it was turned off or on though, same with the CPU. I'm going to spend some time getting power into it today, charge, then put in freezer to cool it, and repeat.
Once some power is into it I'll start with suggestions, one at a time, and get some screen shots up, and logs of the current drain.
Thanks for the help so far, would be good to get it going again, instead of having a $350 paper weight.
An update:
Changed the recovery from Philz recovery to an older CWM recovery program, and now possibly just through coincidence the battery isn't super heating to the point it needs to live in the freezer to charge.
I have restored to stock ROM, and have a couple of pictures of the battery history, which are neither here nor there, apologies as I wiped a lot of things off, including my WLD pictures from the ARHD ROM.
I purchased trickstermod and had a look into the CPU settings, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Also turned on the dev options of graphic CPU usage on the homescreen - not really showing unusual signs of anything. About to flash the original recovery on and email HTC to see if they might feel sorry enough to accept it as a straight manufacturing defect, without evidence of where we purchased it (as it was a second hand phone off the net).
subscribing to this thread - I have the exact same issue. I have installed CM11 and ParanoidAndroid. Torched and Bubba kernel... turned off lots of stuff.
I have whatsapp, soundcloud and facebook as the only background running apps. not sure what's the issue
sensors drain battery
Hello!
I also have a similiar issue.
I noticed, after a while, that my phone keeps dying under 16-18 hrs on idle from full charge.
I thought it1s the battery, since my HOX is 2 years old. Someone suggested, to try some battery monitoring, so i got the battery monitoring widget, after for like 3rd time, the phone turned off overnight.
The problem, is the Light, and the acceleration sensors... they won1t let the phone go to sleep.
I tried turning off locations, and such, also auto rotation, and my back light was never on auto. it is set around 30%
Still, these sensors run, and consume battery like crazy. This started about 2 weeks ago.
I have a stock rom. not the original, since i thought flashing a custom rom might solve this, so i tried ViperX 4.1.1, the problem was still there.
After that, i reflashed an untouched original HTC JB rom.got the latest OTA update, and the problem is still there...
I don't have any apps running in the background, that should require these sensors to run. i always clear multitasking also.
Have Wifi on, but that barely consumes anything.
Any idea, i know this started on Gingerbread, and was supposedly fixed in ICS, but it's still happening to some ppl.
Any help would be appreciated!

I have checked all the sensors in the testing menu by dialing *#*#3424#*#* and they all turn off and on as required properly. I noticed yesterday that I've actually burnt out the charging system as it has got too hot at one point, so no use pursuing anymore. I will stick with my HOX until it too breaks in some way. Received an email back from HTC saying "Not under warranty, not our problem" after asking if they had had any phones with similar issues pass through.
So weird Issue.
Using Google Maps on MaximusHD 6 with the latest t-mo firmware (2.11) I get constant "GPS SIGNAL LOST" when obviously driving and using it as my nav since I got it. I'm in southern California with a pretty good LTE signal almost everywhere. The highways are pretty open so trees, mountains, buildings etc are ruled out as a probable cost.
Now today I noticed that I normally keep the phone locked/screen off when driving since it's connected over BT so there's no real need to look at it. During a normal 15-20min drive I would get the signal lost alert a lot. Upwards of 10 or so times on that single drive. While with my M8 it never happened especially when literally not 5min after getting out of the parking lot doing maybe 20mph down the street. I first I thought i messed something up since I took the phone apart to apply thermal paste to keep it from overheating.
However today on a drive back I kept the phone with the screen on. Never did it lose signal while the screen was on, but a minute after I locked the phone (screen off) did it lose GPS signal. I turned it back on and after driving 20min or so the signal wasn't lost.
So overall has anyone experience a similar issue? Full cellular coverage with frequent google maps alerts that the GPS signal was lost. Maybe a background gps process being killed or another coming up and hindering it.
Gonna wait for the Thanksgiving break to mess around with stock/custom roms and see if it's just something that can be fixed with a reflash.
I'm having the same issue, have you figured anything out? Have you tried using a different app besides google maps to see if it's the actual app doing it's power save feature, or the background powersaving process being started by the phone being screen off? Really interested because my phone starts burning up to extreme temps...
On the backup I had with the issue I narrowed It down to possibly a background process cutting it off once the screen turns back. Power saving was off and all that would stick while screen was off was maps, Google service, and social apps.
As for the cause I couldn't figure it out. I went with a stock from without issues. Then went back to custom roms and haven't had the issue again. Also I drastically lowered my app count. Barely use any apps not needed for basic functionality.
As for the temp issue you're having. I noticed gets warm just like any other device when using GPS. I have opened up the phone and applied a new thermal coat following off a thread around here.
I have another issue came up where the phone would seek out a GPS signal while battery saving was selected to even location turned off. Killed my battery in a heart beat. Hasn't happened again.
I would suggest you make a full backup and either flash a stock rom or redownload whatever custom rom your using. Do a trial run for a day or two with minimal apps and see if it improves.
Here's where it gets interesting..
I used to own a galaxy s3 i9300 and custom kernels caused exactly the same issue. Flashing a stock rom solved it and a few other issues, one in particular was gps inaccurate coordinates.
Now I have moved to an m9. This has in the past run great. It is completely stock and untouched by curious fingers.. However, recently my gps has been running at random intervals even though it is completely off in all accessable settings. I can't find the culprit and it sapped 40% in a few minutes. It was literally a short face to face conversation, jumped back in the car and went for my phone for waze.. Dead as a dodo..
Confuzzled completely as to whether this is the actual rom doing it or an app..
I wish I stole my HTC M9.

Android 6 should be released around here soon so maybe that'll improve/fix these issues. I wouldn't be surprised if Google services is causing this since it has in the past drained batteries and causes similar issues. If the kernel is involved then the issue has been seen on both stock and custom.
well it may be a setting from the maximums HD, try using other Rom and tell us if problem is solved, try HD Revolution or ViperOne.
Hi all, I got a Moto G3 and having issues with the gps no signal message, it is on and off, but more the time that have no signal. So have heard that Android 6 could be the guilty one.. Do any of you know if there is a fix yet? ?

About 3 days ago the battery drain on my Nexus 5X went crazy. I found out that the "app" Android System do not let the phone sleep and keeps it awake all the time. That is why the phone can not even get into doze mode and drains about 8% per hour when the screen is off. I tried restarting the device and also force stopping the Android System. Both without any succes. Do anybody knows what to do with it? Or should I just wait if it will go back to normal? I do have screenshots, but the XDA will not let me post outside links...
Interested about that.
Ur screenshot may be useful, host them in a site like imgur and replace dots by other letters.

I am having the same problem. It occurs randomly, most often when I have just charged the phone and removed the cable. If i am correct, a wakelock under the name *backup* is holding the phone awake, it might be the same in ur case. I've done a research on this, turned out this is unfixable unless you have some sort of wakeblocker, which my current rom lacks of. I tried using xposed with its modules, but it gave me a ton of bootloops and i gave up on it. The only temporary fix for me is to reboot the phone. Until it happens again. No clean flash nor anything i have tried seemed to have helped. I even tried disabling all services and receivers from Android System, no luck again. That is one hefty problem

I have exactly same problem with wakelock. It happens only after charging. Everything is OK after restart.
It has happened to me sometimes on my old HTC One X and I think it happened also once on this 5X, but it was just for about a day or so. It disappeared itself with time, I didn't do anything with it then. Now it's been 6 days, I have to charge the phone twice as frequently and neither the reboot nor the force stopping everything works. I really don't know what to do in this case. Also this phone isn't rooted yet, so I can't just flash the system again as on my old HTC... I'm still hoping it will disappear by itself asap
But do you anybody have any other ideas what can I try to do to stop that crazy system app?
same problem here...
had the phone about 350 hours with no restart and i thought i would give it a reboot..
same think happened...android system was going from 2% to 20% in a matter of hours..
installed an app called GSam Battery monitor..showed me the phone was not going in deep sleep (Doze mode) at all...
here is an attachment if anyone can understand better than me..
I posted a similar thing in the battery life thread. Very odd really as I've had the phone a few months now but it also only started with me a few weeks ago. Really can't think of a trigger for it... I doubt the April update would have been significant enough to create an issue, but who knows.
Exactly. After about 4 months of working excellently and about 400 hours without restarting, after charging it's immediately goes into this "mode" when the Android System won't let the phone sleep. Even restart didn't help me, but now after 3 restarts it goes to normal. One bad thing... after every single one charging, every time I put the phone on the charger it goes crazy again and I have to restart the phone after every cutting of of the charger... it makes me really angry when the phone is only 4 months old and even the "okay" battery life isn't that good on this phone... God I just need to find a solution, that's insane...

THIS!!!!
the phones battery life was a big "ok i can just play a bit less so i can get through the day and IF anything happens i know it has fast charge so ok"
nowadays i have to reboot after EVERY charge....
p.s.
anyone that faces the same problem but WITH mai's security update? do we have any hope that it will fix that problem?
Not sure if it's a one-off, but I decided to uninstall the game "8 Ball Pool" by miniclip as it appeared on my battery usage stats when I'd not opened it in days. Since then, even after a recharge, the phone seems to be going to sleep as normal.
I'll monitor to see how things go but perhaps it could genuinely be a rogue app. It's a little disappointing that doze wouldn't block the keep awake requests - I thought that was one of the main purposes of it.
The same issue occurs for my Nexus 5X: after device disconnected from a charger, Android System process starts to keep device awake until next restart. As I understand from comments above factory reset does not help to solve a problem. Has anybody met the similar problem with custom ROMs/kernels?

It started with the latest update I think. It hasn't happened once ever before. I hope they already know what's happening and with the May update it will be gone. I don't think there's any other solution when you don't want to flash custom ROM and stay on stock... :/ we have to wait.. :/

Hmmm, sorry for offtopic clarification... as of now I'm little bit confused about Android versioning, especially it's unclear for me: whether you mean as latest update: 6.0.1 or april security patch or model build number (like MHC19Q, which is currently on my device)?
I guess it must be April security patch. Some kind of problem in the Android System app that comes with the security patch. I don't really know in this case, but as I've said, it hasn't happened once before the April patch

I rolled back to MHC 19J. The April MTC19T Build cut my battery life in half. Android system being the top culprit. Deep sleep never going over 80%. Horrible idle drain. Would drain 15% over night while i slept. Exact same setup as before, no new apps. SOT went from about 5 hours to not even 3.

MTC19T is May update. I've updated my device to it yesterday and the issue hasn't been fixed yet: a device is still kept awake by Android System after disconnecting from a charger. @ScumDroid, could you please confirm there is no such issue on MTC19J after rolling back?

Same issue. After running it for few months flawlessly, the Android System is keeping the device awake and only restarting it solving the problem temporarily. Charging the phone again starts the wake lock..
Most disappointing is it's the 'Android System' that causing the problem. If any app/game is linked to this, it should have been appeared as the culprit but unfortunately it's that 'System'.
Waiting for solution.
Samsung users are having the same problem.
I have found something on my Samsung Galaxy S6 in regards to 'Android OS' killing the battery. It might be the same for Nexus users, I've confirmed this on a Moto G 2015 running the latest MM update and on a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. By latest update, I mean the April security patch.
Check this and this.
